Zen Mirco Formated and fully charged STILL goes flat after being turned off all nigh
This is starting to annoy me now, I formated the unit and then allowed it to be fully charged, now in the morning when I awoke after leaving it off all night it was completely flat again. So this rules out corrupt files in the library.
And from all the other things I have done I have ruled everything else out, so come on creative!
Whats going on?
It's strange that the Zen Micro does it but the Zen Touch doesn't. It could be because of the massi've battery life in the Zen Touch but I charged my Zen Touch up completely about 2 days ago and turned it on today and it's still showing 3 bars. I really hope they remedy this problem because it's a bit annoying taking it with me in the morning only to have the battery die later that day.

Can someone help me regarding my concern? It is a bit impossible for me to send back my iPod to where I bought it because I am already back in the Philippines. What are my other options considering that I live miles away from California already?
First, try the usual steps: restart, reset, restore.

Whenever I try to rent a movie, Apple TV buffers and does not come back. I am able to see other programs, but not able to rent movies. And the movie charge still goes on my bill.
Apple TV uses iTunes. The reason you can't rent through your ATV is because you can't rent movies through iTunes Canada. Sadly, as this is a user-to-user forum, no one here would know when or if rentals will come to Canada.

Creative Zen Vision M not fully charging
(Creative Zen Vision M not fully charging( Hi, I recently bought a refurbished ZVM that doesnt seem to charging properly. When I first got it, it hadnt been charged in quite some time so the battery was overdead. My PC couldnt detect it when I connected it via usb and it didnt even start charging at all. I then connected it to a wall charger and it finally started charging. The strange thing is it never fully charges. I've charged it twice now, both times for at least about 2 hours, and the battery doesnt go more than 50%. And when I connect it to my PC to transfer songs, instead of resuming its charge, my battery runs out. Is this a case of a faulty battery? I li've in Australia and I bought it from the USA. I would prefer not to go through the trouble of returning it if I could. Anything I should do like leaving it to charge for an even longer time? Also one more thing I should mention. When I remove the wall charger and plug it back in, it takes the ZVM sometime to detect it, about 30 minutes or so, and start charging again. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I have the exact same problem. I just mailed mine in for repair today.

I started downloading a song hours ago in iTunes, in mpeg-4 format, and I'm still waiting! What's going on?
Go to expresslane.apple.com and make an appointment for iTunes to call you. You prob just got a hiccup in your wifi and now they wont download. They can send them bac to your iPad for you. Just make sure you have a good internet connection.

MBP constantly switching between charging and fully charged, what's wrong?
My MBP is constantly switching between charging and fully charged. The mag safe connector flashes orange for a bit and back to green. The same goes for the status in the tool bar. Originally I thought it was the mag safe so I switched it up to my backup mag safe. I was fine for about a day until the same problem appeared. Any thoughts?
If your MBP is one of the early 2007 models then most likely it has the same battery problem that others have had, as did mine. Look at the support page on apple.com for info on these issues.

I have just reset my my iPhone 4s and it is stuck on the apple screen, not being recognised by iTunes and fully charged, any ideas how to get it to turn on properly?
Hi Cjroyle,

Take care,

how long should it take to rest the settings i have done mine and it is still going after 1 hour it is just on the apple screen
Hey Beck,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you’ve Reset All Settings on your iPhone 4s and now you’re running into an issue where the device only displays an Apple logo on startup. The article linked below provides troubleshooting suggestions that should be able to help you resolve the issue.
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
If your device gets stuck during startup
When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
Put your device in recovery mode.
When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.

If you still need help after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support.

I have the Energy Saver setting set to NEVER on both, and my computer STILL goes to SLEEP after 1 hour. Please help!
My COMPUTER goes to sleep and disrupts my apple tv all the time. How can I fix this?That you are getting the BONG is a good sign, it's unlikely to be hardware if you are able to hear that.
Start by running SW update. It's not that there is a specific fix, but when updating it may rewrite some system files which may get this going again purely as a side affect. Worth a go, and should not harm the system.
Try reset the PRAM - Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
Hopefully one of these quick fixes works, otherwise we'll need to try isolate the issue next - so if still having a problem, I'd try create a new user and login as that user to see if the issue persists (which will tell us if it's system wide or user specific) -
I started and Export PDF over two and half hours ago, and it is still going. How can I stop it?
I started an export PDF over two and a half hours ago and it is still going. I can't stop, and I can't upload export anything else.
I have the same problem - updates are stuck on loading, and the app store is now also doing the same. I've tried resetting, but it hasn't made any difference.
I haven't been able to load iTunes onto my computer - 2 hours on the phone with Apple, as well as 4 hours of my IT guy's time (which I paid for) and no one could help. So going through iTunes on the computer is not an option for me.
Is there any way of cancelling or resetting the apps just with the phone?
Have had the phone for 6 months and this is the first time it's happened, but it's been stuck like that for about a week. Now I can't update or load any apps. -

This is an iPad user to user forum, so you are not addressing Apple.
Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good. If your computer/iTunes does not recognize the iPad, then the cable is probably bad.
Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

I was playing songs on Itunes while charging my iphone 3 then suddenly turned off. I pressed sleep and wake botton for 10 mins but no logo appeared.What happened?
Sorry, but if you see the "connect to iTunes" screen on your phone, the only option is to restore, backing up the phone is not possible at this point, even importing the photos might not work anymore.

I have put Ipod in restore mode and about 1/2 way through download it goes back to message "disabled type in passcode" ?? I have turned off all security and tried all trouble shooting ideas, any suggestions?? besides paying $$$$ to apple tech support
What appears to be happensin is that before the actual download finishes/restore starts. the recovery mode is timing out. I would do a manual download using the instructions here:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Then place the iPod in Recovery mode and restore using the instructions in the link. -
